While many of us abhor electric cars and raise many pertinent questions about its infrastructure and handling, there is no doubt that the world is moving towards 100% electric.

Sure, other technologies exist and many new ones are coming up soon, but there is no denying the fact that companies like RollsRoyce have stated that all their new models will henceforth be electric starting in the year 2030. Many other manufacturers are following suit as Europe slowly seeks a transformation, with Asia and America soon to follow. We are of course not sure which direction we are going, but till then take in the 7 best electric vehicles being made in the world and available in India, today. Please bear in mind that prices are ex-showroom and indicative and will usually fire north once you start ticking the option boxes...

Spectre has created an entirely new class of motor car: the ultra-luxury electric super coupé. The all-electric powertrain takes the signature Rolls-Royce experience - instant torque, silent running and the sense of one imperceptible gear - and enhances it for a new generation of clients. With Spectre, Rolls-Royce committed to an uncompromised electric future by specifying an all-electric drivetrain rather than a hybrid solution. It is fitted with two Separately Excited Synchronous Motors (SSMs). The front electric motor produces 255bhp / 365 Nm, with the rear motor delivering 483bhp / 710 Nm.

In performance terms, this equates to an internal combustion engine of 584 hp with 900Nm of torque. In terms of acceleration, Spectre achieves 0-100km/h in 4.5 seconds.Priced at INR 7.5 crores
